Poembox: Death’s Dance

Gossamer wings

Dance a deathless dance

And phantoms linger

Hidden in the inky night

But look closely

For there is a lesson here-

In the austere darkness

Where wings dance

And shadows hide-

Infinity lies

In what we believe

Is impossible

For the wings are attached

To small creatures of the night

And the shadows

Well they aren’t shadows at all

But spirits of the lost

Yet away they dance

To their heart’s content

Inflammable in a world

Where time burns like fire

dance death poetry shadows time wings
